Source: Patriots don't plan to play Tom Brady tonight against Giants

Tom Brady has had a busy morning. Apparently, he'll get the night to soak in all the good vibes.

The Patriots plan to keep Brady out of tonight's preseason finale against the Giants, according to a source. That was the plan as recently as this morning after the walkthrough.

Of course, the obvious question is whether the Patriots want to appease the Gillette Stadium crowd by sending Brady out for a snap or a series as a result of Judge Richard Berman's decision to overturn the quarterback's four-game suspension. But at this point, the information suggests Brady's night will consist of standing on the sideline with a crew of starters who will also get the night off.
